๐ถIt is so important your dog gets to โlet their hair downโ , decompress and get to be a dog. Express themselves and do what they love in a comfortable environment ๐
โผ๏ธIt can take days for a dog to decompress after an unwanted incident. Always be aware of your dogs stress triggers

๐Always be aware of what you are training and more importantly WHY?
๐ถPuppy parents always seem to focus on paw and sit. These are useful behaviours of course. But also think about WHY you are teaching it and what practical use it has. Also with the paw, so many dogs end up pawing for attention because they believe this is what they have been taught. Be mindful, accurate and understand why you are teaching something ๐
